“…At the same time, many Tatars and Russians, who were dissatisfied with equalizing the number of hours for studying Tatar and Russian languages that existed before 2018, completely abandoned Tatar lessons later. Most private firms leave their signboards only in Russian, and Tatar-speaking cultural institutions have a limited audience segment and thus low functionality [20]. Outside government institutions and affiliates of firms and banks, those who are firmly convinced speakers of the Tatar language, independently segregate themselves (however, without forming intra-city ghettosneither housing-space, nor family, nor others).…”

Analysis of the situation with bilingualism among the youth of a megapolis and a middle-sized city in the Republic of Tatarstan is performed. The indigenization processes in power and management institutions, educational and cultural institutions and the impact of this process on the formation of migration motivation in the middle-sized cities of Tatarstan are considered. The ambiguous role of bilingual simulacra in the process of choosing by young people a place of residence is shown. The contradiction between real professional career opportunities and the choice of a job in a megapolis in the case of command of the two main languages in the Republic of Tatarstan and the unstable simulation capabilities of myths in solving the problems of bilingualism in the megapolis are revealed. The prevalence of migratory attitudes among high school seniors in middle-sized towns, and the presence of a stable orientation among some young people to live in their hometowns, as well as the existence of the opposite vector, which forces individual boys and girls to return to their small motherland due to disappointment in the simulacra of megapolises, including bilingual simulacra in cultural and domestic sphere, collapsing under the influence of globalization. On the basis of mass surveys of youth in the Republic of Tatarstan, Kazan and medium-sized cities, the important role of the psychophysiological characteristics of youth and their great susceptibility to bilingual simulacra in the process of forming migration attitudes are revealed.

“…Thus, to a question "What is your attitude to a problem of the Tatar language teaching in the educational institutions of Tatarstan?" included in our survey in autumn 2017, the response "The Tatar language shall be compulsory studied by all students, regardless of their ethnic origin, on par with the Russian language" was chosen only by 4.2% of Russian respondents and 24.9% of Tatars, though in 2011 the percentage was 14% and 44% respectively (Maximova et al, 2017).…”

The relevance of the research problem stems from the specificity of the system of fundamental education in the 21st century, which implies a capacity of educational establishments not only to provide knowledge to the student, but also, due to the continuous and rapid emergence of new knowledge, to shape a need in ongoing independent absorption of knowledge throughout the entire life. An important role in this process is played by the consideration of opinions not only of young generation which is the main target of educational institutions, but also of people of all other ages who become active subjects of the educational process. The paper objective is to reveal pressing challenges associated with reformation of the Russian system of education through the intergenerational discourse. The main method used for research was the representative mass survey of population of the Republic of Tatarstan. The research results helped to identify the intergenerational peculiarities of assessment of such aspects of the education system, as a possibility to obtain appropriate education and knowledge; a possibility to fulfill oneself in the profession and study; impact of education on personal social promotion; implementation of bilingualism policy in the educational system of the republic. The intergenerational dynamics of educational level across the respondents as compared to their parents is also presented in this paper.
